Otherwise, if long distance fighting, or fighting in general isn't quite for you - why not choose to become an assist?

Being an assist, you'll be able to choose to either be a fighter, or a healer. If a fighter is what you desire, assists generally favouritise close and personal combat. As you progress, you will find that using certain skills you will be able to destroy all enemies at once. If supporting other characters is more your style, you may choose the alternative. By using a magic stick, you will be able to cast magic spells to enhance the abilities of those around you.

Kind and gentle, the assist has a heart of gold.
